Thu, 13 Oct 2016 22:34:13 +0000http://quinncreative.wordpress.com/?p=4082#comment-65928So glad I found this thread. I bought myself my 401A when I got my first job +/- 42 years ago. It’s still going strong but I haven’t used it for anything but minor sewing & mending in years. I’m now into Paper Crafting and I love colouring picture for my Cards. A friend of mine has taught me how to colour on Fabric and now I want to back & sew the pictures before colouring them, then stipple the background. It took a little bit of help from a friend who does lots of quilting/sewing, but I am now learning how to do “Free Motion” sewing on this Old machine. I just need to figure out which Foot = the modern Quilting foot and I’m set. Still searching Google for a picture of what one looks like. I have a partial Manual, cover & a few pages missing. Hobbies are so much fun and so relaxing, in this stress filled world. Love learning new ones.

Tue, 11 Oct 2016 20:33:00 +0000http://quinncreative.wordpress.com/?p=11813#comment-65925When I use a container deeper than 1 inch the paint sinks. If I dip a small amount of the starch mixture from the large container into a small bowl the paint spreads beautifully. This is driving me nuts – can this method be used in deeper containers or is it too dense and water/starch separate?

I subscribed to your blog a while ago and am rather enjoying it. I wondered if you’d like to look at mine. I’m a 62 year old artist and writer and renaissance soul and I’ve recovered from depression and anxiety after 30 years. I’m now making up for lost time. I think I’m doing ok…
